The Senate has called on the Nigerian military to deploy sufficient personnel to reclaim Abadam and Marte Local Government Areas in Borno State, reportedly under the control of Boko Haram insurgents. During plenary, the Senate acknowledged the significant sacrifices made by the military in combating insurgency but expressed concern over the lingering presence of Boko Haram in the two Local Governments. This resolution followed a motion presented by Senator Mohammed Tahir Monguno (APC – Borno North). Senator Monguno highlighted the challenges Borno State had faced due to prolonged insurgency, commending the efforts of the Nigerian Armed Forces in restoring relative peace. However, he raised concerns about the lack of civil authority and military presence in Guzamala, Abadam, and Marte Local Government Areas, which he said are predominantly agricultural communities. Monguno stressed that the insecurity in the areas had caused severe hardship, disrupted local economies, and hindered infrastructure development.
